"My Tattoos. "

"He who makes a beast out of himself,
  gets rid of the pain of being a man,"  -Samuel Johnson


Can You feel My pain
Can You see My Shame

You don't have to look
deep; it's Written on My
face

Can You see My Scars
If You felt this body of
flesh that I wear;

Yes; ran Your fingers
across Me then, I'd be
readable: like You were,

"Helen Keller," reading
  Braille

Cause every inch of Me
has a Story to Tell

If You Ventured in, beyond
the Vail; into the Facade
that I wear

Because each One of Us
is a Book Written within
and without
We are the Manuscript
and the...

"Intellectual Concept,"

Engraved by the...

"Pen of Life,"

Whether We want it to, it
Carves Us All, like a knife

Strife, Hatred; Malice from
the Shit We've been through
that Inadvertently,  makes...

Us; so

Can You see My Scars
If You felt this body of
flesh that I wear;

Yes; ran Your fingers
across Me then, I'd be
readable: like You were,

"Helen Keller," reading
  Braille

I don't Wear My heart
on My Fucking Sleeve
but what's Underneath
and Unseen is...

Completely Distinguishable
